Posted April 17, 201311 yr I know this isn't often done, but I am seeking help, for my latest MOC, that is currently in the design stages. To keep it simple, this MOC is a 2013 Ford F150, which has modifications from the standard model. I think it will be quite hi-tec, with certain features such as brakes, but I can't get some elements right, so I'm seeking help. The main part, is a gearbox. Simple enough normally, but I realised that a basic gearbox is not enough with everything else. So, if anyone has a 5+R Sequential Gearbox, with detailed pictures/instructions/LDD file, and is willing to share it, it would be greatly appreciated. The second part, is a V8 engine, in the same scale as the rest of the model. 1/12. I'm not too fussy with this, but if it isn't pneumatic, it would be better. Don't worry, all credit will go to people who have helped, and I will make it obvious that these parts weren't made by me. Thanks.
April 17, 201311 yr well crowkillers has a nice gearbox on his website http://www.crowkillers.com/model.php?model=transmissions
April 17, 201311 yr Author Thanks, but preferably I'd like it to be a sequential, but I'll definitely keep this in mind.
April 17, 201311 yr If you have LDraw installed on your computer, you could access the Building Instructions for this "Compact Sequential Gearbox (5-Speed + N + R)" by Paul vdB:
April 18, 201311 yr The grey 2013 Ford F150 has a lot less chrome on the nose than the overdone, gaudy blue F250 or brown F350 below:
April 18, 201311 yr Author The F250 and F350 are a bit too big. I also prefer the look of the F150. I'm making the dual cab, long wheelbase version though, so it still won't be small. Thanks for the help, and can LDraw run on Macs?
April 18, 201311 yr Thanks for the help, and can LDraw run on Macs? Yes,. LDraw is a library, not a program. Once you have the LDraw library, you can use Bricksmith for an editor on the Mac, and LDView as a viewer.
April 18, 201311 yr Author Ah. I see how it works now. Thanks Blakbird. I always thought it was a programme, and with no specific Mac download, I assumed it wouldn't work.
